Can't really say on the wedges, no experience with either make. Adams is considered a good manufacturer in general though. I think I read somewhere that Burrows is out of business, but don't know about their product.

I've heard good things in general on Orlimar woods. I think some of the members here play them.

You may want to search the equipment reviews section right here on GR, or go see what the reviews are on golfreview.com or a similiar site.

I would go with the Adams wood set first choice and then the Orlimars. The Adams wedge set should also be your top choice from your options. Adams makes good stuff. Those Adams wedges are nice, two buddies of mine play em and love em. Mac stuff is just flat ugly.

The Adams "Watson" wedges are good wedges. Rock Bottom says "Their Price" was $129.99 .. that was about 2-3 years ago. The 3-pack has been selling for $99.99 for awhile now. So $49.99 for these wedges is a steal!

I had all three of my Watson wedges bent 2°. They are now 50°, 54° & 58°. The Gap wedge is now closer to my pitching wedge. With the medium pack sand in these parts the 54° SW works great.

I've got the 60 degree Mac Burrows and I really like it - good feel, balance, etc. - awesome around the greens and out of the sand. I bought it just wanting to try a 60 and went cheap in case I didn't like it. Granted, it is "different" looking, but the face is all you see at address and the results have allowed me to get past the looks.

The Adams set is a very good deal I buy them a year ago, they play very good and for the price you will not anything close. I changed the grip, the factory installed is very slim. If possible ask for double tape and put the Golf Pride Dual Grip if you have swetty hands or play on wet conditions control on hands are a most with those wedges.

Note:
The Gun metal finish wears out fast, consider the satin finish.
